I got a Tiepolo this past weekend and I'm dying to frame it. I want it to look really nice. Anything online I can buy from that really nice quality without costing me a fortune.
Thanks!:D

I have a friend who has matted several Georgia O'Keefe prints in white with gold/brass frames, and it looks very classy.

There is an eBay store called The Rusty Roof (http://stores.ebay.com/The-Rusty-Roof-Frame-Shop_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsQ3amesstQQtZkm)and they have really great prices. If you don't see the size you need, you can contact them and check their unlisted merchandise.
I'm always interested in this because I'm an artist, an art teacher and gallery manager for our church. Check the site out and see what you think.
Blessings,

I had good luck with clip together frames from Ikea or Selgros. These are a piece of board and a glass front that make a sandwich with the print. The clips hold them together. I have several things that are framed in these. I actually like that the graphics of the print stand alone without a frame around them.
I think I remember Ikea also having more traditional looking frames. These were usually in the downstairs are right before the checkout.
